passing POST data from popup to main window

Hello,

I want a popup window with a form in it. When a button is pressed the window should close and all form data has to be passed to the main window. In that window there is no form. I just need the POST data as I had sent it directly to it.

This will cause it to open in a new window when submitted. but if you absolutley have to use javascript to do it... you can do an "onsubmit" event have it create the window, when the window loads have it read the info from the parent window into it's form, then have it submit it.

If you dont want to do that you might consider passing the info as a GET.
